| Mark Williams will face Judd Trump in the semi-finals after he defeated Joe Perry 5-4 |
Judd Trump once again provided an exciting match at the
Shanghai Masters as he scraped past Graeme Dott after a deciding frame to
secure a spot in the semi-finals. Trump had been 4-1 up at one stage but the
Scot produced a fantastic run of three frames to force a ninth frame. However
Trump remained composed an compiled a fantastic 108 to seal the match.
Trump will face Mark Williams who also needed a deciding frame
to squeeze past Joe Perry. Perry was 3-2 up after five frames although Williams
went within one frame of victory when he won the next two but for a fantastic
131 break from Perry who made it 4-4. Perry had the first chance in the decider
but sportingly called a foul on himself which neither Williams or the referee
had spotted and The Welsh Potting Machine later went onto compile a 75 break to
win the match.
Scot John Higgins kept up his impressive Shanghai Masters by
defeating Ali Carter 5-3. Higgins had led 4-1 and despite a mini-revival from
Carter who made it 4-3, Higgins remained in control of the eighth frame to seal
his progress. He will face Shaun Murphy in the semis who comfortably saw off
Stuart Bingham, 5-1.
